Mark's primary goal as a playwright is to create relevant, powerful and authentic theater that provides fresh insights into the human experience. His writing confronts complex moral and social issues through compelling drama, humor, and nuanced, genuine characters. Mark is driven by the conviction that great theater happens when an audience makes an emotional connection to the play, and his gratification as a playwright is derived from broad, diverse audience sharing a meaningful dramatic encounter with his work.
